Buccaneers release RB Mike James, juggle practice squad

“The thing that myself and he had to learn is that it’s a long process”.

The 6-5, 257-pound Westbrook is a rookie out of the University of Florida. Jameis Winston completed 17 of 36 passes for 261 yards and one touchdown against one interception.

Newton and Winston became friends while working with quarterback guru George Whitfield.

“I’m excited”, he said. The cool thing is, i got to keep a piece of it.

How do you go from Raheem Morris to Greg Schiano to Lovie Smith and become a worse team? “He missed a lot of time”. They were challenging us to throw jump balls to him. I’m not telling you anything that Mike wouldn’t tell you.

The Bucs lost both games to the Panthers last season with Derek Anderson at quarterback.

It’s not like McCoy hasn’t turned in a few dynamic plays already. He’s had good games against us in the past.

James provided depth and versatility to the Bucs’ running back room.

SERIES HISTORY: 30th regular-season meeting.

The Bucs are tied for the league lead with 11 penalties per game.

The experiment of turning Bears into Bucs has not gone well. The Glazer family, who owns the Bucs, also own the Premier League club.

The work is expected to be done in time for the college championship game in 2017, and would hopefully attract a fifth Super Bowl to Tampa. “It’s a trait and something that’s acquired and all that”. He ranks second to Wesley Walls among tight ends in receptions, receiving yards and touchdowns. Sooner or later it would get to me.

The Bucs are monitoring McCoy’s playing time carefully. In the second week against Houston, Olsen caught six passes for 70 yards.

For McCoy, they have happened all too frequently. Here’s a good look inside the contests the Buccaneers run smack into on Sunday if they open up to Panthers to effectively Raymond James Stadium.

-C Evan Smith (ankle) did not practice again Wednesday. “We’re on track eventually to break out of this and have an excellent defensive, offensive and special teams game into one”. If he’s unable to play, he would likely be replaced by Kevin Pamphile.

We all want Smith to succeed. Under the Bucs counter proposal, they would add another $52-$75 million investment and make more changes. Defensively, the Bucs have to set the edge on the perimeter or Newton will run wild. Let’s just let everything play out a little bit.
